EAST LANSING — Actor Adam West met with Batman fans of all ages on campus at Michigan State University on Monday.

West, 84, is best known for his comedic, quirky roles as Batman and Bruce Wayne in the 1960s television show and movie "Batman" and for voicing Mayor Adam West in "Family Guy." (See videos below.) He signed autographs for fans at the International Center on Monday afternoon and was slated to hold a question and answer session at the Michigan State Union Monday evening.

And shortly before greeting fans in East Lansing on Monday, West tweeted "I can promise, I'm not wearing tights."

West is a spokesman for Neebo, a Lincoln, Neb.-based text book company that owns Ned's Bookstore in East Lansing and also works with the Michigan State book store on campus. West made appearances at Michigan State and the University of Central Florida to promote Neebo’s back-to-school textbook rental campaign.

"Adam West's trademark knack for the eccentric makes him the perfect spokesperson for the Neebo brand," Senior Vice President Bill Zeuch said in a statement. "He's an unexpected yet relatable face for students, parents, alumni and faculty, and we are excited to have him onboard to help us make students' college experiences even better."

More than 250 fans lined up at one point to meet the Caped Crusader. They spanned all ages — from a young boy who excitedly ran past the line to proclaim, "That's Batman!" to Denny Kubczak, 66, who watched the TV show as a college student in the 1960s.

Kubczak, of Clinton Township, said he and his friends planned their schedules around the show. He recalled gathering around the television in the recreation room at one of University of Detroit's dormitories.

"We'd literally be hundreds of us sitting around a TV, a lot of us just standing, watching and laughing and enjoying that part of culture, that part of history, which was very unique at the time." he said.

Fourteen-year-old Colin Mahoney of Laingsburg brought a tin Batman lunchbox for an autograph. West asked him what he planned to do with it.

"I told him I was going to bring it to school and show all my friends that I got it signed by Batman," Mahoney said. "He said, 'That's pretty cool; it's a good idea.'"

Sallye Emmons of Holt went to have West sign two 1963 Batman comic books for her brother Corkey's 65th birthday.

"He's eight years older than I am, so that was about the only thing he wanted to do with his little sister, was watch 'Batman,'" Emmons said.
